Researchers, thinkers and educators are invited to join our first, fascinating event, to begin our Peace and Stability Dialogue Series. Participation is free of charge, but bookings are essential.

Symposium participants will actively participate in co-creating the parameters of the questions and themes of our multi-year Dialogue Series.

Morning Symposium – All are welcome!

9.30am to 12.30pm

Book your place via Eventbrite [coming soon!]

The morning session is open to all who are interested to come along and enjoy thought provoking presentations.

Invited speakers will present Six Provocations. The provocations will be designed to be contradictory, challenging and sometimes confronting. Provocations will be framed within the following themes:

Relationism and Survivalism

Peace, Wisdom and Logic

Law, economics, the commons, the market and finance

Media, technology and communications

Male/female reconciliation, rapprochement

Pluralism, Ecology and the Commons

These initial provocations will begin the process of building the parameters for the longer term Dialogue Series.

Guest Speakers

Afternoon Workshop – Expressions of Interest are invited

How to participate in the Afternoon Workshop

To participate in the afternoon workshop, you are invited to submit a 150-200 word outline of why you wish to attend, what you hope to learn, and some of your initial ideas to contribute to discussion.
